Pervert sent penis pics in pink chastity belt and begged woman to treat him like a pony

A man bombarded a woman with persistent, explicit messages about being treated like a pony after she responded to his Facebook post seeking a stable for a photoshoot

A pervert sent pictures of himself wearing a pink chastity belt to a woman after bombarding her with kinky requests about being treated like a pony. Stephen King posted in an equestrian group on Facebook based in another part of the country, asking if they had stables he could rent out for a photoshoot.

One woman responded and was then sent alarming messages by the 27-year-old, including requests to be treated like a horse and to be whipped, fed and even tacked like one. He also asked about getting humiliated by someone sexually and asked to take part in poo picking at the stables.

Then, in August 2024, he sent an image of his manhood while wearing a pink chastity belt.

King, of Windward Road, admitted sending a photo of his genitals to cause alarm or distress when he appeared in court in October. He returned to Medway Magistrates’ Court on March 5 to learn his fate.

The case started with the woman responding to the Facebook post, thinking she could make some money from hiring out her stables. The judge heard that when the messages took a turn, she told King to go away and even suggested there were other groups on social media which could accommodate his kinky demands.

Piers Restell, prosecuting, said: “He messaged again with further requests and asked if there was someone else at the yard who might be able to do it, and that he was happy to pay.” The court heard the woman then blocked him, but he managed to message her again on another platform and continued with his twisted requests.

He then started sending pictures of sex toys and said he wanted to be a lady’s b****. He also sent pictures of himself wearing bondage gear.

The prosecutor added: “He said he wanted to be put in a bridle, and the messages get more explicit as time goes on. After he sent the photos, she tried to steer him towards other groups, but then he sent the chastity picture.

“It was a naked photo while he was wearing the chastity belt, and his genitals were showing. The picture caused alarm and distress.”

District Judge Leake was told the woman wrote a victim impact statement in which she said the messages were graphic. King was unknown to her but he was making it clear what his sexual preferences were.

She said the messages were persistent and that he asked what horse equipment could be used on a human. The woman also said her mental health had suffered as a result of his unwanted contact and that she was frightened he would turn up at her address.

Her young daughter had access to her device, and she was worried in case he sent more messages and she saw them. Samuel Sotunde, defending, said his client had pleaded guilty at the earliest opportunity.

He added: “He’s appalled by his behaviour and he’s of previous good character. He has no previous convictions.

“This was out of character for him, he’s from good stock. He’s seeing a therapist and that’s ongoing and will continue to be ongoing.

“The pre-sentencing report said he’s no risk to children. He’s now got an app on his devices, and his mum is monitoring him; his mum and dad are supporting him.

“He has employment. He’s an IT consultant, but he works from home and provides IT services for schools, but he has no access to children, and he goes into the office once a week.” The court also heard King earns £1,700 a month.

Judge Leake said he took into account King’s early guilty plea and that he was of previous good character and acknowledged the case had taken some time to get before the courts. He added: “It’s hung over you for some time, and that is not your fault.”

He also said it was a very unusual case and that he’d heard a lot about King’s sexual preferences. Judge Leake added: “They are entirely your preferences, but the issue is how to express yourself to others about it.

“This was an equestrian group, and you contacted it for the purpose of your sexual preference. You are not an equestrian, and she understood you wanted the yard for a photoshoot, and then things developed and took quite a different turn.

“They were unpleasant to read and had an impact on her. The picture showing your genitalia was the straw that broke the camel’s back for her, and she sought the protection of the police.”

King was handed an 18-month community order, which will involve him attending 20 rehabilitation sessions.

He added: “This will help you recognise boundaries and think more carefully.” The judge also ordered King to carry out 180 hours of unpaid work, and must pay the woman £1,000 in compensation.

King will also be put on the sex offender’s register for five years and was banned from contacting the woman or writing anything about her on social media for three years by way of a restraining order. He was also ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £114 and £85 court costs.
